Detailed Description
A Phase III randomized, modified double-blind, multi-centric, comparative study, to evaluate the noninferiority of immunogenicity and safety of single strain oral cholera vaccine Hillchol® (BBV131) to the comparator vaccine Shanchol™ along with lot-to-lot consistency of Hillchol® (BBV131)
Study Population: A total of 1800 participants will be enrolled in three descending age groups (Group I- >18, Group II: > 5 to <18 and Group-III: >1 to <5) in 3(1350):1(450) ratio.

Secondary
Secondary objectives:
To evaluate and compare the immunogenicity of Hillchol®(BBV131) with that of Shanchol across all age groups, by comparing the geometric mean titers (GMT) of vibriocidal antibodies in participants receiving Hillchol®(BBV131) and ShancholTM.
To evaluate and compare the frequency and severity of all solicited and unsolicited adverse events upon administration of two doses of Hillchol®(BBV131) or ShancholTM, among all three age groups.
Exploratory Objectives:
1)To demonstrate the consistency of immunogenicity for 3 consecutive lots of Hillchol®(BBV131) (lot-to-lot consistency) across all age groups, by comparing the GMT of vibriocidal antibodies in participants receiving doses from each vaccine lot of Hillchol®(BBV131).

Diary cards will be distributed to all the participants to record the adverse events after vaccination.
Day 1-7: The study participants will be telephonically followed up by the site for the first 7 days to know their current health status.
Visit 2: (Day 14+2) Study participants will return to the OPD for physical, general examination. Blood samples will be collected for immunogenicity test. A study vaccine will be administered. Following vaccination, participants will remain at the study site for at least 30 minutes to record any adverse event. Diary cards will be distributed to all the participants to record the adverse events after vaccination. Day 15-21: The study participants will be telephonically followed up by the site for the first 7 days to know their current health status.
Visit 3: (Day 28+2) Study participants will return to the OPD for physical, general examination. Blood samples will be withdrawn to assess immunogenicity.
Visit 4: (Day 56±7) Study participants will return to the OPD for physical, general examination. Blood samples will be withdrawn to assess immunogenicity.
Visit 5: (Day 90±7) Study participants will return to the OPD for physical, general examination. Blood samples will be withdrawn to assess immunogenicity.
Visit 6: (Day 180±7) Study participants will return to the OPD for physical, general examination. Blood samples will be withdrawn to assess immunogenicity. Safety Monitoring: Subjects will be observed for 30 minutes after vaccination for immediate adverse events.
Active surveillance will be conducted for all participants for 7 days and 14 days after each dose of vaccine to ascertain information on solicited adverse events and unsolicited adverse events ("Reactogenicity").
Unscheduled visits:
If any subject develops any adverse or serious adverse event or concerned about his/her health, they will be advised to visit the study site during the study follow-up period. All unscheduled visits and details of adverse events will be documented in the source document. Concomitant medications, if any, will also be recorded.
